SNMP Builder for Zabbix

snmp_builder blank area

Hi,
Just tried to install snmp_builder in zabbix 1.8.4 but does't load anything in the tree field.
I think I had done every steps from zabbix wiki and several suggestion in the form but still no luck. My test.php works when querying snmptranslate.
Anybody could help?
Thanks.

cannot save itemlist

Hi everyone!
I've tried SNMP Builder with Zabbix 1.8.5 and I've experienced a problem - I cannot save item list to a template. I've tried to modify code in snmp_builder.php according to some previous posts, but still I have a problem. When I look for errors in firefox error console I see a message: itemlist.data.toJSON is not a function. Can anybody help me?
Thanx in advance.

I've solved the problem. The reasonwas that my javascript didn't support toJSON method. So, I had to replace it with JSON.stringify. I have replaced the string json = itemlist.data.toJSON(); in snmp_builder.js with json = JSON.stringify(itemlist.data, null); and everything is working!

Maybe this post can be useful for you.

snmp_builder blank area on 1.8.10

Hi everybody,

same issue as apfrida.
Zabbix 1.8.10 but does't load anything in the tree field.

Does it work on 1.8.10 again ?

I have done all steps and suggestion and test.php works fine.

Anybody could help or tell me which Zabbix version to install in order
to have this wonderful (best of!) tool working ?

I didn't know "how" to catch log or debug info about what snmp_builder has done or where it stucks

I need it a lot

Thank you very much in advance.

Do you see any error messages in the bottom of the page? For example "Cannot find module...." or anything else

Hi ksy,

not, unfortunately not.

I solved mib dependency and now I see nothing

Thnx

Hi, zabbixfli. You can check for errors using firefox or chrome error console. There you can see errors concerning javascript or php. Check it while choosing MIB and provide me output plz. I've solved a similar problem that way.

Ok ksy, let's start.

Of course, first of all, thank you !

Now :

Uncaught ReferenceError: DynTable is not defined -> error from Chrome console

points to row 23 :
var oidview = new DynTable('oidview',{'headers' : ['Oid/Name','Type','Value']});


It's better I tell you I am using custom snmpbuilder-zabbix1.8.8.tar.gz
by kostil, at last.

Second, in order to go on with no feedback (I did not know someone is looking forum ) I was trying to import mib using net-snmp
by this guide
http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.p...d_loading_MIBS

and I found that at this step

snmptranslate -m +CISCO-RHINO-MIB -IR -On ciscoLS1010ChassisFanLed

I get this error :


No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
Did not find 'zeroDotZero' in module SNMPv2-SMI (/usr/share/mibs/netsnmp/IP-MIB.my)
Did not find 'zeroDotZero' in module SNMPv2-SMI (/usr/share/mibs/netsnmp/EVENT-MIB.my)

Cannot find module (SNMPv2-TM): At line 10 in (none)
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.11.1.1.12

Basically I know Zabbix depends on net-snmp for snmp operation.

Hoping can help you !

Thnx

Have you made any changes in snmp_builder.php? I mean replace
page['scripts'] = array('../snmp_builder/Tree.js','../snmp_builder/snmp_builder.js','../snmp_builder/DynTable.js','scriptaculous.js?load=effects,dragdr op');
with
$page['scripts'] = array('Tree.js','snmp_builder.js','DynTable.js','e ffects.js','dragdrop.js');

and to add to jsLoader.php:
$availableJScripts = array(
'Tree.js' => '../snmp_builder/',
'snmp_builder.js' => '../snmp_builder/',
'DynTable.js' => '../snmp_builder/',
'common.js' => '',
'menu.js' => '',
'prototype.js' => '',

It's described here: http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/howto/mon...p/snmp_builder

Great !!!

So the second one was missing ! you are much clever than me

I saw too many times those files and I loose something...

Now, it seems to work but :

1) is it normal almost a minute to get query result once I clicked on OID ? (maybe I don't know)

2) can I speed up process in some way ? (eg leaving only mibs I need (Cisco MIBs are a lot
and I need only Call Managers related)

3) Is there a common sense to save an entire list of record (I mean table resulted OID) ?


I am trying to make some tests and I will fine tune based on your feed, pls don't leave me again

I'm very pleased to know that everything worked for you. I'll try to give some suggestions on your questions:
1) I also have to wait some time to get a result;
2) I don't think that you can speed up this process as it takes some time to send queries to a device and get a reply then.
3) Personally I don't save entire list, I just choose the items I want (interface traffic and performance as usual).

I have tested SNMP Builder and I'm very satisfied with it. Now I'm trying to find a solution to use OIDs with interface descriptions or aliases to see them on graphs. Maybe you can provide any ideas.

Hi Ksenia, I am very satisfied too, I think it's a powerful tool, and it would be better if it was integrated into Zabbix itself (I know there is a new feature request going in that direction).

About your question, I will try to check it out.

Now I am looking to integrate also a script that retrieves data by Cucm Cisco Call Manager (what kind of equipment do you monitor using Zabbix ?) using
AXL language.

Many thanks again.

Stay tuned and have a good day

I've just started adding devices to Zabbix. We monitor Cisco and ZTE routers and switches as well as Linux and Windows servers but we don't have Cisco Call Manager. And btw what kind of information would you like to retrieve?

I never dealed with AXl, but I have some ideas about a script in perl which would automatically add graphs. I think I'll try to do it in the near future.

Concurrent active calls for example or media-resource activity and so on

Have you any ideas about insert many items in an application without make it one by one ? I am working with zabbix db but I don't think it's a good idea..

Thnx

[zabbixflic]

Hi ksy,

just a question : which is the "best" method to handle snmp traps arriving from different devices ?

I read this one :

http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/howto/mon...p_trap_handler

after I see

http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/howto/mon...nmptraphandler

but I read bad comments so I was going down to bottom but now I am a little confused..

Coming back to previous argument I found this post :

http://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15726

it could be useful to query Cucm but I must understand how to solve
soap dependency completely

Thnx !

Hi all,

i tried the snmp builder on zabbix 1.8.8 on debian 6

i applied all the patches described in wiki
at the first time, it was possible to read out something from the device, but i wasn't able to add it as a item.

i added some new mibs, like snmpv2 and tried it again, but now there is no result and the window with oid/name remains empty

i also waited for about 5 minutes, but there is still nothing to see.

does anybody have an idea?

greets

oliver
